One Harbor Point Development Agreement

The Ben .B. Cheney Foundation and Neil Walter Company are proposing a Development Agreement per the provisions of the Gig Harbor Municipal Code to allow the One Harbor Point development at the intersection of Harborview and Soundview Drives in Gig Harbor, Washington. The project, as recently revised, consists of two sites including the upland triangular-shaped site and the Boat Barn site located across Harborview Drive to the east. For more information view the One Harbor Point page.

Burnham Drive Apartments

This proposal includes an 80-unit apartment complex with a community building, parking, and utility extensions on an irregularly shaped parcel of 4.45 acres. The development will include five 3-story multi-family residential buildings, a 2-story carriage unit building with garages on the first level and apartment units on the second, and a single story community building with leasing offices. The site is located in the City’s B-2 Zoning District (General Business) and the MUD Overlay (Mixed Use District). Multiple-Family Dwellings are a conditional use in this zone and therefore require a conditional use approval. The site is generally hilly and a ravine with associated steep slopes exists near the eastern property line. This ravine area is to be left in a natural state.
